Several times it has been at ninety in the shade, and one can sympathise with the aged darkey who is said to have exam ined a thermometer closely and remarked, “H’it was a siua’t man dat made dnt trick. Ef he lmd er made it one inch longer he would ha’ burnt do wurl up.” The best the average citizen can do is to fan himself and keep from swearing, while he thinks of the ice men and the ill-wind that blows nobody any good. We still have something to be thankful for. Freezing is one of deaths most insidious form of approach, and for the present we are in no danger in that quarter. Chat From Chipley.

LOCAL LACONIC*. —Rainbridge Democrat: Columbus now claims a population of nearly or quite 26,000- more than double what it was in 1880. This shows what manufactures do for a town, once they get into it Rainbridge can double her population in a few years also by the adoption,of the same processed. -Our river trade is soon to have another new boat, making seven in all, one for every day in the week, and a new one every time. This looks like there might be money in steamboating on the Flint and Chattahoochee, don’t it?-Bain- bridge Democrat. Of course it does, but ask the steamboat men about it and see what their test i- mon> will be. You will think steamboating is worse than farming in a bad crop year. -The Southwestern railroad has carried 52,375 bales of cotton from Columbus since September 1, 1885.

The tom cat over the way that is madly, wildly n love. That shaggy dog, that has more bark than one ofthe giants ofthe Yosemite forest. The young lady who wears her hair in hang papers, and dons the suggestive Mother Hub- hard outside the sanctity of her bedroom. The otherwise, elegant gentleman who stares in a dwelling as he goes passing by. The village cow, who, untamed, roams the streets and largely resides on our sidewalk. The man who \£uits till Saturday night to have his hair cut. Specially in a town closing the shops on Sunday. The lnumless idiot who imagines lie is a power in politics and "can vote more men than any body.” The widow who imagines the world should pay her tribute because she is "all alone now, you know,” The party who never subscribes a cent to any thing. and delights in telling how the ^nvn should be tun. That church which is always behind and wants the sinners to pay it out of debt. The farmer whose crops are always “the worst I ever had,” The employer who imagines low wages is the highest evidence of good management. The youth who supposes it is the thing to get half tight or more so at a german. The small boy who impoitunes us to buy a p; per that we have worked The merchant who neveradver about dull times. The forgetfril inan who fails to talk up his town every chance he gets. The fanatic who imagines everybody is wrong but himself, and tries to force men to change their opiuions. The paradoxical man who begs capital to come to our state and then begins to abuse it as soon as it gets here. The improvident gentleman who contents him self with being a “good fellow,” and lets his wife do the work. The argumentative youth who never allows a commonplace assertion to puss without correc tion. The snickering couple that never speak a whole sentence without laughing. The public officer who imagines he is the peo ple’s master, instead of a public servant. The kindly disposed disinterested parties who have repeatedly suggested exactly how “you should run the paper.” Templars, it has never been our good fortune to see. The honor which they bestowed upon the writer in culling him to the highest office within their gift, he accepts with profound gratitude. “The vast audience of citizens which he ad dressed in the opera house was responsive and explosive in the last degree. “Columbus is a beautiful and prosperous city. Its cotton manufactories are the best in the south. The leading newspaper, the Ekquikbr- Sun, is ably edited and wields a wholesome in fluence over a large territory in Georgia and Ala bama.” Woodbury's Boom. A correspondent writing from Woodbury says: “The Georgia Midland is coming and no mistake, and we are bound to have a splendid town. We have a large and productive territory from which to draw trade, and heavy business will be done here. The roads to the town are not rough and the worst places can be easily placed in good con dition and kept so. Our town is healthy, society good and churches close by. Close to the river, and almost nt the foot ofthe mountain, the air is pure, cool and refreshing, and our town will be a fine resort for the summer tourist and pleasure seeker^ Nearer to Greenville than Hogansville, the people visiting Atlanta and going to points farther north will find it more convenient to take cars here than to go to the Atlanta and West Point road. Thus a closer and mutual intimacy will spring up between the two town Personal. Mrs. ('. A. Etheredge returned from the Warm Springs yesterday. J. H.

A correspondent who has recently taken occa sion to investigate the matter, gives the follow ing as a compilation of the appropriations re ceived by Georgia from the United States gov ernment since its formation: The first public building authorized in Georgia was in 1819, when congress made an appropria tion of 129,100 for erecting a custom house and warehouse at Savannah.

Singular Condition of Mind of* a Oneo Eminent Engineer— Believes Himself God Almighty and Arts Accordingly. New York, July 30.—In the inquiry now being held before a sheriff’s jury into the mental incapacity of old John Baird, the engineer, who furnished the plans for the construction of the elevated railroads in this city, Addison Baird, his youngest son, testified to-day. In response to tlie ques tion whether he had noticed any change in his father’s condition after his return from Europe, the witness said: “At first he seemed moody, but in a few days became very talkative and was easily excited. He was quite changed in this respect, especially with strangers. Toward the middle or October his mind seemed to run toward the scriptures. He quoted script ure constantly and based every action of his upon it. One night he made us write out a list of friends for him. He said all of them were in the custody of God. A list of his enemies was drawn up at his desire, and he said they were all in the hands of the devil. He once said that his wife was to die the following Tuesday, and wanted to have preparations made to have my sister come and take charge of the house for him. Shortly after he in formed me that his wife was insane and that she had told him so. I remember one day he went out in his slippers and in formed a man he met at the Union League club that he was God Almighty. •‘lie got the idea into his head about this time that his wife and the attending phy sicians were trying to poison him. We went to stop at the Everett house, and he behaved in a most peculiar manner. He used to go to dinner and order nearly everything on the bill of fare, and spend from three to four hours at the table, in sisting upon having me take everything he did. He always gave from $1 to $5 to the waiter at the early meal and as much to the chambermaid and bell-boy every time he got them to do anything for him. At about that time he said he was the heir to to the estates of Robert L. Stuart and of A. T. Stewart. One day he called with me at the house of Mrs. A. T. Stewart, but we were unable to see that lady. The colored servant at the house refused to let us in, so my father began to abuse him, calling him all kinds of names. After we left my father told me he had gone there to take possession ofthe house. ~“Al another time I was told ; by a friend I met on the street, that my father was at Delmonico’s. I went there and found him very excited. He said that he had just been to the office of Samuel H. Seaman and had taken possession ofthe Cromwell steamship line in the name of God. He stated that Mr. Seaman was a child of the devil and had •285,000 | called in a longshoreman, who had put Ooil Ille** the Children.

Dr. Hawthorne, of Atlanta in speaking of his recent visit to Columbus, has this to say in the i last issue ofthe Conflict: “Our recent visit to Columbus, Ga., was at- 1 tended with great pleasure. We were entertain- Advice to ii Young Mini. Bob Burdette in Brooklyn Eagle. My son, injetter \vriting be entertaining, be amusing, be brief, and if youcan.be funny. A funny letter is always welcome. But don’t be funny if you can’t. Don’t, night to get out. oh, my son, don’t try to be funny. Unless ntises and growls, you are morally certain that your fun is funny fun, save it for a sermon. Nothing in all this world is so fiat, insipid, tasteless, vapid, utterly savorless as flat fun. It is heavier than stupidity, staler than dull ness, blanker than vacancy. Now and then 1 receive a letter which some writer, who is as devoid of humor as a cow is of feathers, has tried to make funny for my entertainment, and as I dismally wade through the dreary lines, my heart is painfully dis appointed, because I think: “What an ex cellent. sensible better has this g'ood-keart- ed fellow spoiled, because he thinks I am an idiot, doing nothing but grin and gig gle all the day.” He could write a good letter, too, did he write like his own natu ral self. “But,” you say, “I might write a letter that I thought was very funny, and yet it would not be funny at all.” Well, no, no, my son, no. You see, you have some sense. You can tell a brilliant sunset from a burning lumber yard. You can count the feet of your poems on your fingers and you know t nut stethoscope and phalanx make not a good rhyme. You know when a thing is funny and when it is flat. You know enough to eat when you are hungry, don’t you? Well, then, you know when a sketch is really tunny and when it is a disastrous imitation. “Well, then,” you say, “you profess to be funny. Do you think that everything you write is really funny?” Oh, my son, my ten der Tclemachus, if you dreaded to see the Eagle as I do, if you went out into ! the wilderness and clubbed yourself J with your pen as often as I do: if with heavy heart and streaming eyes, alone and in the darkness a failure, you buried as many printed jokes, dead in the hour of their birth, as I do, you would trade your pen for a hand-saw and paint brush and write spectacular dreams. Why, if you make one-half as many successes as I have made and do make twice as many failures, the gods will envy you. “But do I bury all my dead jokes?” No; I embalm some of them.

An official return just issued gives some | interesting information about the manu facture of playing-cards in England. At present there are nineteen manufacturers in the United Kingdom, who pay a license of twenty shillings, and who produced 800,000 packs last year. This did not meet the demand of the English card-player, so half as many again were imported from Austrian and American makers. The stamp duty imposed on those cards is now a fairly important source of revenue. Last year it amounted to nearly £15,000. Save Your Money. The E. Ross & Co.

D. F. Willcox, Agent Travelers’ Insurance Co: Dear Sir—A few years ago you induced me to take out an Accident Policy in the Travelers, and upon your persuasion I have kept it up year by year, not at all anticipating the possible benefit to accrue. But I have now to thank you for it. as well as for the.Company’s check of $353.57 in payment of my claim for many weeks of disabil ity, the result of a very painful accident, threat ening the loss of my right hand. After this ex perience of how it is “the unexpected which al ways happens,” I shall certainly keep up my Accident Policy, and I shall not forget the promptness of the Company in paying my claim as soon as the amount could be ascertained.
